K - Preliminary Arborist Report (29.08.2019)
The tree protection fencing is to be of an agreed design/construction style in consultation
with the consenting authority, relevant representatives and Treescience with consideration
of the overall TPZ area, defined TPZ, topography, and length of the
development/construction period. It should be noted that existing perimeter fencing, and
other structures may be suitable as part of the overall protective fencing design.
Ideally, tree protection fencing shall consist of 1.8-metre-high temporary/relocatable
galvanised steel mesh panels in accordance with Australian Standards AS4687-2007:
Temporary fencing and hoardings.
The tree protection fence is to be supported by steel poles, concrete anchor blocks and
clamped at the top of each pair of panels. The tree protection fence must have a lockable
opening for access. The subject tree’s woody roots shall not be damaged during the
installation, modifying and dismantling of the tree protection fence.
Shade cloth material shall be attached to the outer surface of the tree protection fence
where deemed necessary in consultation with the relevant representatives and Treescience.
The purpose of the shade cloth is to reduce the transport of dust, other matter and
liquids into the protected area. The shade cloth material shall be transparent to provide
visibility into the defined TPZ where possible.
NOTE: pre-start TPZ Fencing Certification will be issued prior to the commencement of
any proposed works.
08.5 TPZ SIGNAGE
Tree protection signage should be attached to the tree protection fencing and be displayed
in prominent positions.
The TPZ sign shall be repeated at 15 metre intervals or closer where the TPZ fence
changes direction. The signage shall be installed prior to the commencement of works on-
site and shall be maintained in good condition for the duration of the development period.
NOTE: pre-start TPZ Signage Certification will be issued prior to the commencement of
any proposed works.
